Secure Auth for
Input-Constrained Devices

Enable frictionless login flows on Smart TVs, consoles, IoT hardware, and CLIs
without requiring complex text entry or local browser context.

How It Works

The Device Authorization Handshake

Transform a complex login on input-constrained devices into a simple scan-and-approve action on the user’s smartphone.

  1. 1. Initiate Authentication

    A TV asks the user to visit example.com/activate on their phone or scan the QR code
  2. 2. Scan QR Code

    A phone camera reads the QR code shown on the TV
  3. 3. Approve Access

    The phone asks the user to approve or decline the Smart TV app requesting their account
  4. 4. Instant Sign-In

    The TV greets the signed-in user and shows their apps

Beyond the Browser

Secure Auth for Every Device

Bring modern identity to devices where typing is impossible or frustrating.

Securely authenticate Smart TVs, IoT appliances, enterprise hardware, and CLI tools without requiring complex text entry or local keyboards.

Secure API Access

Access API with Device Auth

Once a device is signed in, it can securely reach your protected API resources with a properly scoped token, so the device does real work, not just authentication.
